Comments

Ghost includes a native comments system that allows members to leave comments on your posts. This theme supports comments out of the box — no additional setup or third-party tools are required.

Setting up comments

You can control who is allowed to comment using Ghost’s global membership settings.

Step-by-step:

1

Go to "Membership" in Ghost Admin (Settings Membership).

2

Under the "Access" section, choose who can comment:

  • Nobody

  • All members

  • Paid-members only

3

Click "Save" to apply your settings.

Visibility rules

Comments appear only on posts that the visitor has access to. If a post is restricted (e.g., Members only, Paid-members only, or Specific tier), the comments section will remain hidden until the visitor meets the access requirement.

For more details, refer to the official Ghost guide on comments.
